I'll quickly correct you as a zoomer: Gen Z is too young to remember windows vista, but just old enough to have enough fuzzy memories of skeuomorphism to be nostalgic for it (think of it like millenials liking vaporwave despite being very young in the 80s).
This makes far more sense as #2 with a flavor of cashing in on zoomer nostalgia.
- settsu 1y ago> millenials liking vaporwave From context, I'm assuming this is a misnomer and not a jab. XD (Although, admittedly, I'm not sure what the reference is actually to...)
- apetresc 1y agoI'm not sure what you mean; vaporwave is neither a misnomer nor a jab. Did you think they meant vaporware? The vaporwave aesthetic is that neon, retro-futuristic, laser-beam-y type look.
- settsu 1y ago*facepalm* You're correct. I misread it every time, including the first time I scanned your comment. (A truly strange experience since that is not a common occurrence for me. I simply never saw a "v" there.)
